Ticketmaster accused of consumer law breach over Oasis Croke Park tickets

Ticketmaster faces two charges under the Consumer Protection Act over the sale of Oasis tickets for the band's reunion shows at Croke Park in August 2025, according to prosecutors. The charges allege that Ticketmaster provided unclear, unintelligible, ambiguous, or untimely prices for the tickets, which likely led the average consumer to make a purchase decision they wouldn't have made otherwise.

Additionally, Ticketmaster is accused of offering platinum tickets in a manner that would likely deceive or mislead consumers about the main characteristics of the product, including its specifications. A dozen consumer witnesses and experts are expected to give evidence in the case, which was adjourned for four weeks to allow for disclosure between the parties.
